Hi

Can anyone give me any ideas for a 40th birthday present for my snowboarding husband?

We will be with a group of friends in Nendaz, Switzerland for his birthday. I've hunted about but not found anything really. Just thought you may have some ideas, being a non boarder and not having been to Nendaz before I'm struggling!

Thanks in advance

Difficult one without knowing what he already has...

However, if someone offered me to go skiing in Switzerland for a big birthday I'd be a pretty happy bunny anyway!
I wish I could meet the person who first decided to strap 2 planks to their feet and throw themselves down a mountain

How about a day/half day (budget?) with a guide.
A days boarding focussing just on your husband to board where he will enjoy etc.
Maybe arrange in advance to meet at a certain restaurant for lunch?

What about a helicopter flight http://www.air-glaciers.ch/AIR_GLACIERS_WEB_SITE/PAGE_Services_Helico_Sulfatage/vBQAAKKchRtFZkxlSWF5VVpjAQA?WD_ACTION_=MENU&ID=M46 or perhaps a Kessler snowboard http://www.kessler-swiss.com/en-US/pages/products/snowboard/theCross/presentation

Well Daisy - it is his 40th, so life goes downhill from now on :mrgreen:
How about heli skiing? I reckon about £1000 should sort that :shock:
